Yamaha 704 Dual Engine Top Mount Control Box - 48207P

Compatible Applications

Pro Marine 48207P is designed for compatible Yamaha dual-outboard installations using the Yamaha 704-style top-mount mechanical remote control system.

OEM and Cross Reference Numbers

Pro Marine 48207P replaces or cross-references the following Yamaha 704 dual-engine remote-control numbers.

What This Control is Used For

The remote control box provides the operator with independent throttle and shift control for two mechanically controlled Yamaha outboards.

Each control lever operates its corresponding engine, allowing the operator to shift each engine between forward, neutral and reverse while controlling engine speed.

Dual-engine controls are especially useful for maneuvering because each engine can be shifted and throttled independently.

Yamaha 704 Top Mount Design

The Yamaha 704-style control is a surface-mounted / top-mounted binnacle control designed to install on top of the helm or console.

Unlike a side-mount control box, the operating mechanism is positioned above the console surface with the control hardware mounted below the panel.

This style is commonly used on center consoles, offshore boats and other twin-engine installations where a centrally positioned dual control is preferred.

Mechanical Throttle and Shift Control

Pro Marine 48207P is intended for mechanically controlled Yamaha outboards.

Mechanical controls use physical control cables between the remote control and the engines to operate throttle and shift functions.

This should not be confused with later electronic or drive-by-wire Yamaha control systems. If your engines use electronic throttle and shift, verify the correct electronic control before ordering.

Dual Engine Control

This control is specifically intended for a two-engine installation.

Each lever controls one engine so the operator can independently manage throttle and gear selection for the port and starboard engines.

If you have a single-engine Yamaha installation, Pro Marine also carries a separate single-engine top-mount control. Do not substitute the dual-engine 48207P for a single-engine control application.

Includes Dual Switch and Wire Harness

The current Pro Marine listing identifies 48207P as including the dual switch and wire harness used with the compatible Yamaha 704 dual-engine control configuration.

Always compare the electrical connector configuration with the control being removed before installation.

Common Reasons to Replace a Yamaha 704 Control Box

• Excessive control-lever play
• Stiff or inconsistent lever movement
• Internal mechanical wear
• Damaged control housing
• Worn throttle or shift mechanism
• Damaged electrical switches or harness
• Corrosion inside an older control assembly
• Complete twin-engine rerigging or restoration

Installation Tips

• Confirm both engines use mechanical throttle and shift controls.
• Verify the existing control crosses to one of the listed Yamaha 704 numbers.
• Compare the control-cable connections before removing the original control.
• Inspect both sets of throttle and shift cables while the control is removed.
• Replace cables that are stiff, corroded, damaged or excessively worn.
• Verify the electrical harness and switch connectors before installation.
• Adjust the control cables according to Yamaha service procedures.
• Verify forward, neutral and reverse operation on both engines.
• Check that both engines return fully to neutral before operation.
• Test all control switches after installation.
